Waffle Stix
™
Tips
• Most waffle recipes can be poured
directly onto the nonstick waffle grids.
Use a cooking spray for dessert waf-
fles or any recipe with a lot of sugar. If
your waffles start to stick, the grids
may need to be scrubbed with a
nylon brush to remove any cooked-on
food particles.
• Waffles can be made ahead of time
and kept warm in a 200ºF (93ºC)
oven. Or let them cool and pack in an
airtight container; store in refrigerator
or freezer. They can be reheated in a
microwave oven, a toaster oven, or
regular oven.
• For soft, tender waffles, cook for about
6 minutes.
• For crisp, breakable waffles, cook for
about 6
1
⁄
2
to 7 minutes.
• Most waffles are done in about 6
minutes. Some of the recipes which
are made from scratch may take a little
longer. Check for doneness at about 6
minutes. If the cover of the waffle
maker doesn’t lift up easily, then let it
cook a minute more before checking
again. When the steaming stops is also
an indicator that the waffle is done.
• To make Waffle Stix
™
, break waffles
along lines. Care must be taken when
breaking waffles into sticks as waffles
are hot upon removal from waffle
maker. Allow to cool approximately
10 seconds before breaking, but do
not wait too long. Waffles tend to
lose crispness with time and will
become more difficult to break.
• Only reheat whole waffles in toaster.
Do not reheat Waffle Stix™ individu-
ally. Reheat on lowest toaster setting.
• Care must be taken when breaking
waffles into sticks as waffles are hot.
Allow to cool approximately 10 sec-
onds before breaking.
• Do not break into sticks while waffle
is in waffle maker. Remove the waffle
prior to breaking. Do not use metal
utensils as they will scratch the non-
stick surface.
